Not Grace Ann's best picture, but she looks too funny from her first feeding! "Hey-what's that you're mixing up over there and why am I wearing this pig around my neck?"

She loves to read "Home and Garden" and "PotteryBarn Kids"

GA turned 5 months on the 16th and she started her first rounds of rice cereal! I was excited to go to the grocery store and buy new baby stuff! We now have spoons, rice cereal and bibs! I know.......I couldn't hold in my excitement either! Just wait it gets better! We are even getting the highchair out!

Okay enough of that............as of her four month appointment here are GA's stats:

Oscar and his toy Isn't this sweet....they are both doing "tummy time."

Ever since we brought home GA, Oscar has been so intrigued with her. He sniffs and licks her and watches her all day. I think he really likes that she is here because we go on lots of walks (before she was born, not so much). I wish I had taken a picture of our walk the other day, because Oscar got so tired of walking that I put him in the compartment under the stroller. I know he was thinking that this is the way to roll around the neighborhood. It's just like a walk without all the work! I was a little embarrassed when cars driving by would slow down to check out my dog in the stroller. But what can you do, Oscar has short legs!

What do we do all day..........you might ask................well a typical day goes a little like this:

Wake-up/Feed GA/Watch Today Show and eat/Take morning nap (yes both of us)/Wake-up/Feed GA/Watch Young and the Restless/I eat/Take walk with GA and Oscar/Run around the house picking up after my sweet (but messy) husband/Play and read to GA/Feed GA/Play some more and dance around for GA to laugh at (what can I say I AM a baby's comedian)/Afternoon nap-just GA/clean kitchen/blog/blog some more/check email ( I love email!)/see what Ellen's up to/see what Oprah's up to/wake up GA/feed GA/look in frig to figure out dinner/Russ comes home/out the door on run/end day/begin night with family

Days I go to Stroller Strides GA naps in the stroller and I attempt to get myself to beauty queen bathing suit status in a high-intensity work out for mommies!

The day after Christmas my parents, Russ, Grace Ann and I met up with my high school gals for lunch at Pappasito's. We had a lot of fun talking about the babies (GA and Berklie), Sara's wedding in Cambodia and hearing about Barbie's little twins that are due at the beginning of the summer! She wasn't even showing yet and she was three months pregnant!
